Flori is a 1939 by Alexandru Ciucurencu, held at National Museum of Art of Romania.
This painting shows a loose, brushy bouquet of flowers in a dark vase. The colors are thick and messy—reds, yellows, and greens pop against a dark background. The brushstrokes are heavy, almost like the paint was slapped on. The flowers look real but are painted in a rough, expressive way. The dark vase sits on a shadowy surface, while the background fades into blurry blues and grays. This style is called *impasto*—where paint is laid on thickly so you can almost see the texture.
Alexandru Ciucurencu (Romanian pronunciation: ; 27 September 1903 – 27 December 1977) was a Romanian Post-Impressionist painter, and a corresponding member of the Romanian Academy.
